Hi Loiner,
The answer to your question is at the moment I have not made any purchase of any of graham's products.

I recently changed my amplifier and it has a very good MM phono stage fitted, my interest was in listening to the Elevator with a view to possible purchase to enable me to upgrade to a MC cartridge. During my joining Graham suggested that as I live so close to him that to leave it a week or two until he got a direct power connection into his workshop and then to go over and have a play.
Since then events have moved on and I now have a dedicated MC phono stage. If this precludes me from being a member then so be it, but I would not think that Fellow Hi-Fi nuts would be like that.

Regards John Moore.

Welcome to the forum, John. 

Not all the chat here is about Graham's products - we like gossiping about music and hifi generally, and some totally off-topic stuff too. So hopefully there'll be something here to interest you . . . Wink

Just reviving an old post from me. Can not believe it was 2015! I did a few cost effective upgrades to the LP12. Over time I fitted a trampoline 2, Stamford Audio sub chassis, Cirkus bearing and a 2nd hand corner braced plinth.

Sounds pretty sweet now. I’ve been looking to upgrade the power supply to a Lingo 4 thinking do I or don’t I, do I or don’t I…

While umming and aaring over alternatives I stumbled across an Orbe with SME V. Somebody had traded it in at the shop and the I can only think the shop must have wanted it off the books before the end of the month or something. So I’ve bought it having never heard one. I think I’ve finally gone mental!!

Michell Orbe and SME V is a fine combination. Which cartridge are you enjoying with it Ernie?

Not enjoying it with anything yet, just waiting for it to arrive. I’ll be moving the Hana SH onto it to start with though.
